The Wonder

Come, tell me where the maid is found.
Whose heart can love without deceit,
And I will range the world around,
To sigh one moment at her feet.

Oh! tell me where’s her sainted home,
What air receives her blessed sigh,
A pilgrimage of years I’ll roam
To catch one sparkle of her eye!

And if her cheek be smooth and bright,
While truth within her bosom lies,
I’ll gaze upon her morn and night,
Till my heart leave me through my eyes.

Show me on earth a thing so rare,
I’ll own all miracles are true;
To make one maid sincere and fair,
Oh, ’tis the utmost Heaven can do!
